Description

@pioterj commented on [Mon Jun 05 2017](https://github.com/gradle-guides/migrating-from-maven/issues/2)

I think we should add some more practical differences in using Gradle compared to Maven. Examples:
- Incremental builds and not using `clean` all the time
- Using wrapper

Here's a good source of inspiration: http://blog.stack.foundation/2017/05/31/10-tips-for-migrating-from-maven-to-gradle/

@ysb33r @kousen WDYT?

@pioterj Instead, I help users make a case for Gradle and link to our feature and performance comparison here: https://github.com/gradle-guides/migrating-from-maven/pull/8/files?diff=split#diff-26e5159b22409dca66bbd718ccd8cc72R9

Good?

Looks good. We may want to mention the two specific points above on https://gradle.org/maven-vs-gradle/ page.

Research direction

Read the discussion and the referenced PR 8 diff, then inspect the Gradle Maven-vs-Gradle page linked in the issue. Confirm whether incremental builds and the Gradle Wrapper are already covered; done means adding those practical differences only if they are still missing.
